The jaguar usually attacks suddenly, often taking the victim by surprise. But in this case there was no lack of warning for the alligator, who was thinking about life before dying. It all happened in Mato Grosso do Sul, in the Pantanal region.

The cat crossed the entire river to get to the place where the reptile was. Even the man guiding the tourists on the boat did not notice this.

Jaguar is lucky

Perhaps even the jaguar did not see the alligator, at least until it reached the shore. The huge caiman was under a pile of dry branches that was floating.

When the cat noticed this, he did not hesitate to move forward to prepare dinner. It was then that a disturbance occurred in the water that attracted the guide’s attention.

“There’s an alligator,” says the boat driver. “And this is big!” he added.

After this, when the alligator is already dominant, the jaguar goes into the forest to eat in peace. Life that continues in nature.
